WHAT would you do if you were in a tragic situation? Most people would prioritize saving themselves and their loved ones, but Ryan Conson was different.Conson, a 38-year-old volunteer firefighter from Barangay Looc, Mandaue City, fearlessly ran through blazing houses and pavements to put out the fire in Sitio Under the Bridge, located underneath the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge (also known as the first bridge) on Tuesday, March 12, 2024.He was one of the first responders who rushed to the site of the fire, prioritizing the safety of the entire community over his own.Peaceful lunchAt the Looc Gym on Thursday, March 14, Conson spoke to the media about his experience during the Tuesday fire. On Tuesday afternoon, enjoying a quiet lunch at home, Conson suddenly noticed black smoke in a nearby area. Conson wasted no time in rushing to their fire truck at the Barangay Hall to investigate the black smoke.“Padung mi didtos nasunogan, dayon nag set up mi direcho. Mao nang dagan kos sulod, nitira ko dayon. Di na gyud namo matabang kay dako na kaayo ang kayo, unya kusog na kaayo ang hangin sad. Hapit pa gani among fire truck nasunog,” said Conson.(On the way to the area affected by the fire, we set up quickly. I ran inside the fire zone and trained my fire hose on the fire immediately. Unfortunately, the fire had already become too large and the wind was too strong. Our fire truck even almost caught fire.)Despite the danger, Conson and his team bravely attempted to extinguish the fire, but it quickly spiraled out of their control.Home lost As the situation worsened, Conson quickly ran back home and handed his family, especially his child, to his siblings for safety. Afterward, he returned to his firefighting duties.After a few minutes, Conson faced the worst experience a firefighter could ever go through. While he was busy saving other houses from the flames, he lost his house.Conson narrated the heartbreaking moment when he had to battle the fire to prevent it from engulfing his home of 20 years.But his composure never faltered in fighting the fire. This time, he was not only saving his community but also neighboring areas from losing their homes with the fire getting more aggressive, just like he was. More than 500 families were eventually displaced by the fire after it burned 370 houses.Rise of a heroConson has a day job working as a staff member at a motorboat port near his residence in addition to his job as a volunteer firefighter. He said the fire incident that occurred in Sitio Paradise, also in Barangay Looc, on Nov. 22, 2022, which was close to his neighborhood, inspired him to join the firefighting brigade in his barangay.The Paradise fire destroyed about 600 homes, displacing 2,737 individuals, making it one of the largest fire incidents in Cebu in 2022.“I volunteered because I really wanted to help people,” said Conson. He then trained in firefighting techniques at the Bureau of Fire Protection Mandaue Office. Conson works as a volunteer firefighter and receives an honorarium of P3,500 a month. He is on call for two shifts, day or night, and promptly responds to any fire incident, even those outside his barangay when the help of their fire brigade is required.For him, his small salary does not matter as he finds happiness in saving people in fire incidents.His most memorable assignment was the fire last Tuesday. Conson is now one of the 515 families affected by the fire who have found temporary refuge at the Looc Gymnasium. The Mandaue City Government is currently hosting evacuees at the gymnasium and nearby Cesar Cabahug Elementary School.Sadly, Conson and his family were unable to save any of their belongings and only escaped the fire with their lives.The first-degree burns on his left arm, which he did not notice until the fire was successfully extinguished, was the only souvenir of his heroic deed and Sitio Under the Bridge’s tragic fate.While waiting for help from the government and other individuals, Conson’s patriotic heart remains, as he chooses to still be a volunteer firefighter despite his experience.“This is a new chapter of my life, but I will continue to help other people. I have been a volunteer firefighter for a year now,” he said in Cebuano.

He said the fire incident that occurred in Sitio Paradise, also in Barangay Looc, on Nov. 22, 2022, which was close to his neighborhood, inspired him to join the firefighting brigade in his barangay.The Paradise fire destroyed about 600 homes, displacing 2,737 individuals, making it one of the largest fire incidents in Cebu in 2022.“I volunteered because I really wanted to help people,” said Conson. He then trained in firefighting techniques at the Bureau of Fire Protection Mandaue Office. Conson works as a volunteer firefighter and receives an honorarium of P3,500 a month. He is on call for two shifts, day or night, and promptly responds to any fire incident, even those outside his barangay when the help of their fire brigade is required.For him, his small salary does not matter as he finds happiness in saving people in fire incidents.His most memorable assignment was the fire last Tuesday. Conson is now one of the 515 families affected by the fire who have found temporary refuge at the Looc Gymnasium. The Mandaue City Government is currently hosting evacuees at the gymnasium and nearby Cesar Cabahug Elementary School.Sadly, Conson and his family were unable to save any of their belongings and only escaped the fire with their lives.The first-degree burns on his left arm, which he did not notice until the fire was successfully extinguished, was the only souvenir of his heroic deed and Sitio Under the Bridge’s tragic fate.While waiting for help from the government and other individuals, Conson’s patriotic heart remains, as he chooses to still be a volunteer firefighter despite his experience.“This is a new chapter of my life, but I will continue to help other people. I have been a volunteer firefighter for a year now,” he said in Cebuano. Philippine Legit Online Casino .

THE proposed Talisay-Minglanilla-Naga coastal road that seeks to alleviate the worsening southbound traffic along Natalio Bacalso Ave. is facing another setback due to budget constraints.Nonato Paylado, chief of the Planning and Design Division of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 7, said they do not have enough funds to conduct a feasibility study (FS).The Cebu Provincial Board (PB) summoned Paylado and other agency officials to appear during its regular session on Monday, March 11, 2024, for an update on proposed road projects in the province that also include the Mandaue-Consolacion-Liloan coastal road.Paylado said the General Appropriations Act of 2024 only allocated P1 million for the FS of the south coastal road.However, he said they require at least P18.6 million to be able to conduct one, adding that they first proposed the amount three years ago.In his presentation, the proposed coastal road is designed to be an alternative road for southbound motorists to bypass the “severely congested” Talisay-Minglanilla-Naga Road section of the national highway, especially during peak hours.The proposed road will traverse the foreshore areas of the cities of Naga and Talisay and the town of Minglanilla, starting from the southern tip of the South Road Properties (SRP) to Barangay Tuyan in City of Naga.“The main objective actually was really to decongest the very heavy traffic, heavily traveled N. Bacalso Ave., especially the Talisay-Minglanilla Road section,” Paylado said.It will also serve as a continuation of the proposed Cebu City South Blvd. (traversing the SRP near the pond) and the proposed Mambaling South Blvd.The project will be 15 kilometers long with an estimated cost of P7.8 billion for civil works and road right-of-way acquisition, Paylado said.With the latest setback, Paylado said the DPWH 7 is proposing through its central office the inclusion of the proposed P18.6 million FS budget in the 2025 annual budget.The FS and the detailed engineering design of the Cebu City South Blvd. and the Mambaling South Blvd. are due this year, but he did not say exactly when these will be completed.Paylado said the two road sections will serve as alternate roads to decongest traffic in the interior portion of Cebu City towards the back of the SRP.The DPWH 7 official said the south coastal road project can be implemented through a Public-Private-Partnership.Sixth District PB Member Glenn Anthony Soco, who invited the DPWH 7 officials, said he will study their presentation before issuing a resolution that will seek to expedite the project in the next round of discussions.He told the DPWH 7 to follow Ordinance 2023-05 that mandates all national government agencies to coordinate with the PB and the Provincial Government for the seamless implementation of projects.First proposalAn alternative road from the City of Naga to the SRP to decongest the national highway was floated in 2015 by the Provincial Development Council (PDC).The then PDC proposed the opening of the old Philippine National Railways routes that ran parallel to N. Bacalso Ave.In 2017, then Minglanilla Mayor Elanito Peña proposed anew the coastal bypass road with an estimated project cost of P16 billion, to be funded by the National Government.It was slated to traverse the coastal villages of Tungkop, Tulay, Calajoan, and Tungkil in Minglanilla.However, there is no update regarding the proposal.In July 2022, Leonard Abao of DPWH met with incumbent Minglanilla Mayor Rajiv Enad to discuss the construction of a coastal road.“We will explore alternative routes and establish diversion roads with the help of our congressman (First District Rep. Rhea Gullas), in order to ease the volume of road users on the national highway,” Enad said in a statement posted on the the town’s official social media page on July 4, 2022. / EHP licensed online casinos THE Philippines and Cambodia have agreed to strengthen their rice trade as the former establishes its inventory amid the current El Niño phenomenon that may impact local palay production.President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. met on Monday, March 4, 2024, with Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet on the sidelines of the 50th Asean-Australia Special Summit in Melbourne.During the meeting, Marcos expressed the Philippines’ desire to engage Cambodia in trade in agriculture, specifically rice.“Some MOUs that have lapsed… we really need to look back and engage with in terms of trade in agriculture, rice specifically. When I visited you in Cambodia last time, that subject that we were talking about. We were preparing for this drought. It’s now happening,” Marcos told Hun.“It caught our attention. We really should look into it. Something that is necessary now. That’s the lesson learned from pandemic. We really have to be flexible in looking to our suppliers,” he added.While Marcos told the Cambodian leaders that the country is improving in terms of palay production, he said the country still needs to import to secure its rice inventory and one area to explore and strengthen is to improve its ties with other rice-producing countries like Cambodia.The two leaders also discussed connectivity during the bilateral meeting, particularly to boost their tourism industries, as well as trade and investment.“We now have flights, five times, Cambodia to NAIA, possibility to increasing destination… Cambodia to Cebu,” Hun told Marcos, adding Cambodia has just opened an airport in Siem Reap and will be opening another one in Phnom Penh next year.Marcos told his counterpart that the Philippine government has contracted a group to modernize and improve the efficiency of the Manila airport, which has been neglected for years, while it is also developing other regional airports closer to tourist spots to encourage tourists to come to the Philippines.“We are also encouraging flights to regional airports. I think that is what we keep hearing, low hanging fruit. I’m sure Filipinos will be interested. I count myself. I am interested to go in… travel in Cambodia,” the President said.“We have done little yet to explore. I fully agree. That’s for two countries, an advantage for us. I’m very much open for that. We will try to see, when I get back, which regional airports are ready to take international tourists and visitors. And I will be glad if we could increase the volume of exchange… tourism, travelers, and even business,” he added.As of February 29, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) said a total of 14,854.86 hectares of crop area were affected by the El Niño phenomenon, which may persist until the first quarter of 2024.The damage to infrastructure was estimated at P941,730,70.01.
